Answer to Question 1

D
Feedback:
A knee system, which replaces the knee joint, is the component that can only be found in an above-the-knee prosthetic limb. Permanent prostheses for below-the-knee amputees and above-the-knee amputees include a socket, a shank, and an ankle/foot system.

Answer to Question 2

C
Feedback:
Because the client learns better by practicing the self-administration of the insulin injection himself, his learning style falls in the psychomotor domain. The psychomotor domain is a style of processing that focuses on learning by doing. The client's learning style does not fall in the cognitive, affective, or interpersonal domain. The cognitive domain is a style of processing information by listening to or reading facts and descriptions. The affective domain is a style of processing that appeals to a person's feelings, beliefs, or values. The interpersonal domain is a style of processing that focuses on learning through social relationships.
